Info
On September 26, 2026, at Ouluhalli in Oulu, Oulu Sinfonia teams up with Olavi Uusivirta for a concert where pop songwriting meets symphonic muscle. Uusivirta is known for Finnish-language pop-rock built on clear melodies, guitars, and that slightly nervous new-wave edge, with lyrics that balance everyday details, energy and a quiet melancholy. Over the years, his albums have moved from tight band formats to more open, expansive arrangements, and this kind of orchestral setting feels like a natural next step.
With Oulu Sinfonia, a long-standing orchestra rooted in the city’s musical history, his songs can shift scale: vocals pushed forward, harmonic colours widened, rhythms sharpened or softened depending on the piece. Expect a set that plays with contrast—intimate lines against a full ensemble—without losing the directness that makes his writing hit close to home.
